The 70s was a dark time in the American automotive industry; the large American machines were soon to be axed off their production lines for smaller, efficient motoring; this was all due to the impending oil crisis. With smaller efficient imports taking control of the market, the 1970 Mercury Monterey Convertible we have today perfectly represents the last living giants.
Full-sized American motors from the 70s were indeed "full" in size; it is quite the task walking around this 1970 Mercury Monterey Convertible, but once you do, the iconic blue exterior and iconic styling make for most of your time spent gazing at the car and truly relishing every drive behind the wheel. The exterior is in great shape, and a white convertible top is in place for that picture-perfect shot as you drive by. Serving as shoes is a set of chrome Cragar-styled wheels. The blue exterior is fittingly matched with a blue interior on this 1970 Mercury Monterey Convertible; step-in and bench seats bring comfort and match the low-down smooth drive feel this car hopes to bring to the table. Once you are in and comfy, the interior showcases all its original features, giving you a better road feel is the original blue steering wheel; looking around, you will find interior trim that's factory and proudly showcases its history through just the right amount of patina.
With fuel-sipping motors taking control of the roadways during the 70s, big old American V8s slowly started seeing their way out of production floors. Pop open the hood of this 1970 Mercury Monterey Convertible, and you will find a ginormous 429ci (7.0L) V8 powertrain. Look closely, and you will find Edelbrock valve covers, air filter housing for added aesthetics, and an Edelbrock carburetor ensuring optimal power delivery. The big old V8 motor is the only powertrain fit to take on the arduous task of ferrying this giant American machine and its passengers in comfort and luxury. The current owner reports that the car has rear disc brakes to ensure better stopping power. While it might not be a performance machine, this car's slow and smooth performance is channeled to its rear wheels through an automatic transmission.
Mercury was one of those brands under the Ford umbrella in the United States. Positioned in the mid-range segment, the brand bid adieu to the world in 2011. Over their 85-year existence, Mercury has made some lovely classic cars that are highly desirable today. This 1950 Mercury Coupe is one such example. It reportedly underwent a restoration in 2011 and has 50,000 miles to its name. It's also a restomod of sorts, as it's got a newer engine and some creature comforts.

If you were flush for cash back in the 50s, you sure were spoilt for choice; visiting your local dealer was a treat as you gazed upon the golden era of the American automotive scene. While the Chevrolet of the time was the name of the game when it came to luxury motoring, the adventurous car buyer could opt for something you wouldn't see too often and drive off in a car like this 1953 Mercury Monterey we have today. Built to stand out, this classic American machine aims to turn heads and represent a time gone by.
Mercury is an American automaker that has long since been mothballed. But the storied brand has been pivotal in the development of America's automotive landscape. The brand was sat between Ford's mainstream lineup and the more luxurious offerings of Lincoln, while the Town Sedan was a medium-priced entrant to the lineup. It was the mid-market family car of its day, and offered a four door sedan in a conventional yet timeless design. Our featured car has reportedly been meticulously restored and features a host of new components that should ensure trouble-free running for many more years to come. This 1939 Mercury Town Sedan features a 350 cubic inch V8 engine, an automatic transmission, and a reported 55,000 miles on the odometer.
This 1973 Chevrolet Camaro is a fully restored classic muscle car featuring a modified 350ci engine and a 3-speed automatic transmission. According to the current owner, the vehicle has undergone a complete restoration, including a new Dark Red Metallic paint job completed in 2020. This Camaro has reportedly been upgraded with a new shifter, headers, and an aftermarket dual exhaust system, enhancing its driving experience. The current owner also states that the vehicle retains its original 85,000-mile engine while benefiting from new carburetor components, a fresh oil change, and new tires. With a combination of vintage styling and mechanical upgrades, this Camaro represents an opportunity to own a classic American muscle car with refreshed features.
The Chevy 210 had a relatively short life, made between 1953 and 1957 before being superseded by the Biscayne. The 210 represented Chevy’s midrange offering, and was offered in various body styles. Buyers could select between sedans, hardtops, coupes, convertibles and wagons. Despite the short production run, Chevy actually made two generations of 210. This particular 1955 Chevrolet 210 2-Door Sedan is a second-generation two-door coupe that’s received a thorough makeover. Residing in Orlando, Florida, it’s the perfect classic car with some modern features for someone who isn’t quite ready to go full classic just yet.
The second-generation Chevy Corvette is renowned for many things. Debuting in 1963 with a neat split rear window, this design feature was axed for 1964 because it impeded rearward visibility. The second-gen ‘Vette also introduced features such as boat-tailed styling, pop-up headlamps, and the Stingray badge. That’s why cars such as this 1964 Chevrolet Corvette L84 Fuelie are highly sought after by collectors. This car is said to be an all numbers matching example with 35,375 miles on the clock, thus making it a great classic car to buy and keep for many years. Of course, you shouldn’t mothball it either; take it for a spin every now and then and experience the greatness of America’s most popular sports car.
